Awesome Dark Shadows Site!

Hey,

I happened to visit a site in which the webmaster makes Dark Shadowa promos as if the show still existed today. The editing is great.

Also there are only three right now, but he promises to do more as time goes by. The link is below, visit it.

You will also need Real Player to view these clips.

The editing is great.

I've only seen the 1967 promo so far, and you're right-- it is WONDERFUL.  (Don't watch it if you haven't seen the Jason/Liz storyline... )  And yet it still managed to end with an exciting cliffhanger.

You will also need Real Player to view these clips.

I couldn't view it on my Netscape, but had no problem using Explorer.  It does play on Windows Media, btw.

Thanks, Shane!

I played all three promos--FANTASTIC work!  I think my favorite is the Parallel Time one; in part because it's an exciting promo that doesn't give too much of the story away.  The 1967 one could run on the WB today, although the writing, acting and direction are about 500 times better than the WB's standard (if you can call it that).  but I'm not bitter...

I agree-- excellent work on all 3!

DStoDA, if you see this, congratulations for the amazing work. 

(Poor Liz, still struggling to open that upstairs door after all these years.  )

That was supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!    Very Creative. Thanks for the link, Shane!

Hey Heather, I'm impressed .... considering that you weren't born yet when that movie came out.  <wink, wink>

i just checked out the link.it took forever to download but was it worth it! it made the 1967 liz/jason story look like some 1940's film-nior.most excellent! i forgot what a "rebelious teen" carolyn was supposed to be before the show went in a different direction.

Whoever did the site sure seemed to know their coding even if it was on Angelfire and/or Geocities (I won't say my degoratory name for the place).  Too bad they can't get some real hosting.  Don't be surprised if you find the main site down from time to time.  You only get so much bandwidth per day on Geocities site and then it will disable.  The videos were really good!

Nice touch with the Bernard Herrmann, "Vertigo" soundtrack on the 1967 vid.  I didn't recognize the music in the other two.

i can't see the link has it been removed?

Uh, no.  It's still in the main topic.

I noticed the same problem this morning and traced it to my Norton Internet Security Ad Blocking feature. For whatever reason, if the banner ad blocking option is selected, the URL will not appear in the post.

I have no idea whether the disappearance of the link has to do with this week's updates from Norton or whether it has to do with having my browser and NIS settings adjusted differently when I first read the post. I've had just about every browsing option checked and unchecked a half dozen times this week while I tried out a web site I'm working on.

At any rate, if I leave the popup blocker turned on but turn off the ad blocker, the URL will appear in the post. Maybe you're having a similar problem.  :-

Thanks, MsC!

What can I say, I was raised on the classics...    

A promo has been added for the suspenseful July, 1970 story:

"The Collinsport Serial Killer" is VERY good.  Kudos to DStoDA.

Midnite, many thanks for posting this update.  I played the "Collinsport Serial Killer" promo, and it's excellent.  Of course, it helps that this is one of my personal favorite DS storylines!

I also had a wonderful time with "Mangelique."  I had similar thoughts about what one could do with the scene involved when I first played that video (a very happy day in Gothickland).  I had forgotten about Angelique's body movements which certainly do look, um, very sensuous.

I wish she would do a Hoffman/Angelique video!
